INTRODUCTION. 



The articles enumerated in this catalogue form the Massa- 
chusetts Colonial Loan Collection sent to the Jamestown 
Ter-Centennial Exposition at Hampton Roads, Va., 1907, 
and were secured by the Board of Managers for Massachu- 
setts with the co-operation of the Massachusetts Society of 
Colonial Dames, and prepared for exhibition by a Committee 
of Experts. 

With few exceptions, everything in the exhibit belongs 
to the so-called " colonial " period. Within this period are 
found the articles of American and English silver which were 
then in use in Massachusetts. The miniatures were painted 
in the years between 1600 and 1810. The fans, laces, em- 
broidery and costumes were all owned or used in Massa- 
chusetts families durino^ the seventeenth and eio^hteenth 
centuries. The interesting collection of autographs of dis- 
tinguished citizens of Massachusetts, and the complete col- 
lection of books of Massachusetts authors, printers and 
publishers, are all of the period prior to the Revolution. 
Some of the portraits and framed photographs which appear 
in the list were placed in the Massachusetts State Building 
by permission of their owners. The rest of the collection 
is exhibited exclusively in the fireproof History Building. 
The Board of Managers take this op})ortunity to make 
grateful acknowledgment to all who have contributed to this 
collection by the loan of articles, and especially to the Com- 
mittee of the Colonial Dames of Massachusetts, who have had 
the charge of collecting the exhibits, and to the Conunittee 
of Experts.
